Hey, hey! I had the most fun work week as you can see.  We’re putting together a new hospitality and tabletop catalog at Haand, the ceramics company that I shoot for. I arrived at work on Thursday to this beautiful sight, all our matte white pieces snuggled together on one table with some spring blooms for an added bonus.  As the perfect follow up to shooting dozens of pieces, I drove over to Raleigh today to visit Provenance restaurant to see how our plates stand up in a fast-paced kitchen. It makes my heart happy to actually see chefs creating mini masterpieces on our dishes. Documenting artists and makers will always be a favorite subject of mine. Tonight I’ll head to the darkroom for some printing and this weekend I think I’ll edit, edit, edit the days away. What about you? Did spring visit you yet? I enjoyed temps in the eighties this week! I’m loving it. Enjoy the weekend – get outside!haand insta-10-2

Actually Katie isn’t here, I think she’s off being a mom somewhere.  Who knows, maybe she went into labor early?! JUST KIDDING. Don’t get excited mom readers!

I had an awesome week space cadets!  I’m feeling a little zapped right now so I’ll let these photos tell most of the story 🙂  Above you can see my haandy work.  Which is your favorite color?  I think mine is fog or celadon.  Starting from the bottom: pollen, celadon, lake, white, clementine, robins’ egg, coral, fog, sand, sea foam and white again.

Catahoula_Cash and I went on a hike every day this week!  We even went some place totally new. We hiked along the Haw River and Cash even took his first dip of the season.  I was a little bit worried that he would try to jump into the river, which is high right now, but he’s a smart pup.  Instead he rolled around in a stream and hopped into a pond!

eggs-1I also found a family-owned dairy farm on the way home from the pottery studio.  I bought a dozen eggs for $3.  Major breakfast plans this weekend!

Oh boy, I know it’s been a crazy week when I barely have a photograph to show for it! Other than the photo above, even little A was spared from the spotlight this week. Somehow our days went from long and lazy to crazy. It’s not going to slow down anytime soon, but don’t take any of that as a complaint – we have so many exciting things going on over here. As Sarah mentioned yesterday, our newest little family member should make his appearance sometime over the next couple of weeks. AND in just two short weeks we’re scheduled to close on a house! (wow!) It’s the house we hope to stay in for a long time, with many exciting features for our little fam, like a large lot size (on the side of a mountain) that we’re hoping to make into a little wonderland with meandering trails, hidden swings, and other bits of fun. And, of course, I’m excited to do some gardening. We have plans for berries and other fresh veggies along with plenty of flowers. I can’t wait to share pictures and tell you more about it when everything is finalized.

liveseasoned_twobits-1-2Whewww. So glad it’s Friday. I require LOTS of sleep and unfortunately I had to wake up early every day this week. Rough life, I know.  I started working at HAAND, an amazing ceramics studio, way out in the woods of North Carolina.  I’ll be taking over their instagram so follow along if you like pretty haandmade dishes, bowls, mugs, vases and such.

I also helped #cashthedog create his own instagram account, so that you’re not inundated with Cash pictures on @LiveSeasoned.  You can see his cute and crazy moments by following @Catahoula_Cash.  I promise I do other things besides post to instagram all day.  Fortunately/unfortunately that is the nature of photographs these days. *Insert old photojournalist’s geezer rant here*

This old geezer is going to make a cup of tea and take some photographs today. Happy Friday errrrrrbody!
